The electronic device 100 of the present embodiment is disposed in a three-dimensional space formed by a first direction D1, a second direction D2, and a third direction D3 perpendicular to each other, and the motion sensor 104 can be respectively directed to the electronic device 100. The movement in the first direction D1, the second direction D2, and the third direction D3 is detected. The electronic device 100 has a touch surface 100a perpendicular to the third direction D3. When the first touch object 118 touches the touch surface 100a of the electronic device 100, the electronic device 100 moves in the third direction D3, so the motion sensor is moved. The mobile device 100 detects the movement of the electronic device 100 in the third direction D3 of the vertical touch surface 100a, thereby generating the mobile signal M1, wherein the mobile signal M1 includes a first mobile signal MS1, and the first mobile signal M1 is related to The action of the third direction D3 of the vertical touch surface 100a. At the same time, the motion sensor 104 can also detect the motion in the direction of the parallel touch surface 100a to generate a motion signal corresponding to the direction of the parallel touch surface 100a. For example, the motion signal in the direction corresponding to the parallel touch surface 100a may be related to the action in the first direction D1 or the second direction D2. In this embodiment, the motion sensor 104 can detect the actions of the electronic device 100 in the first direction D1 and the second direction D2 of the parallel touch surface 100a to respectively generate actions related to the first direction D1. The mobile signal M2 and the mobile signal M3 related to the action of the second direction D2, wherein the mobile signal M2 includes at least one second mobile signal MS2, and the mobile signal M3 includes at least one fourth mobile signal MS4.

於本實施例中,使用者係以第一觸摸物118觸摸電子裝置100兩 次,但本發明不限於此。因此,透過兩次敲擊的動作,觸控感測器102可產生兩個第一觸控訊號S1,且各第一觸控訊號S1可具有一第一振幅A1。第一觸控訊號S1之第一振幅A1可彼此相同或不相同,其主要取決於第一觸摸物 118每次觸摸的程度,例如第一觸摸物118與電子裝置100的接觸面積,以及所對應的訊號放大單元106之訊號增益。並且,移動感測器104可於第三方向D3上產生第一移動訊號MS1與第三移動訊號MS3、於第一方向D1上產生兩個第二移動訊號MS2以及於第二方向D3上產生兩個第四移動訊號MS4。 第一移動訊號MS1與第三移動訊號MS3可分別具有第二振幅A2,各第二移動訊號MS2可具有第三振幅A3,且各第四移動訊號MS4可具有第五振幅A5。同理,第一移動訊號MS1與第三移動訊號MS3之振幅可彼此相同或不相同,第三振幅A3可彼此相同或不相同,且第五振幅A5可彼此相同或不相同,其主要取決於第一觸摸物118對電子裝置100每次移動的幅度,例如第一觸摸物118敲擊電子裝置100的力道大小。由於第一觸摸物118敲擊電子裝置100兩次之間具有一時間間隔,因此第一觸控訊號S1可具有一第一時間間隔T1,第一移動訊號MS1與第三移動訊號MS3可具有一第二時間間隔T2,第二移動訊號MS2可具有一第三時間間隔T3,且第四移動訊號MS4可具有一第四時間間隔T4。第一、第二、第三與第四時間間隔T1、T2、T3、T4係彼此相同。請注意,在其他實施例中,觸控感測器102與移動感測器104可透過預定的時間週期,對電子裝置100進行週期性地觸控感測與移動感測,在此情況下,前述之時間間隔係指兩個有效的訊號之時間間隔,例如當使用者係以第一觸摸物118觸摸電子裝置100兩次之間,電子裝置100可能已進行複數次觸控感測,此時對應兩次敲擊動作所產生的兩個第一觸控訊號S1之間,為第一時間間隔。 In this embodiment, the user touches the electronic device 100 with the first touch object 118. Times, but the invention is not limited thereto. Therefore, the touch sensor 102 can generate two first touch signals S1 through two tapping operations, and each of the first touch signals S1 can have a first amplitude A1. The first amplitude A1 of the first touch signal S1 may be the same or different from each other, which mainly depends on the first touch object The extent of each touch, such as the contact area of the first touch object 118 with the electronic device 100, and the signal gain of the corresponding signal amplifying unit 106. Moreover, the mobile sensor 104 can generate the first mobile signal MS1 and the third mobile signal MS3 in the third direction D3, generate two second mobile signals MS2 in the first direction D1, and generate two in the second direction D3. The fourth mobile signal MS4. The first mobile signal MS1 and the third mobile signal MS3 may respectively have a second amplitude A2, each second mobile signal MS2 may have a third amplitude A3, and each fourth mobile signal MS4 may have a fifth amplitude A5. Similarly, the amplitudes of the first mobile signal MS1 and the third mobile signal MS3 may be the same or different from each other, the third amplitude A3 may be the same or different from each other, and the fifth amplitude A5 may be the same or different from each other, depending mainly on The magnitude of the first touch object 118 moving to the electronic device 100 each time, for example, the magnitude of the force of the first touch object 118 striking the electronic device 100. The first touch signal S1 may have a first time interval T1, and the first mobile signal MS1 and the third mobile signal MS3 may have a first time interval T1. The second time interval T2, the second mobile signal MS2 may have a third time interval T3, and the fourth mobile signal MS4 may have a fourth time interval T4. The first, second, third, and fourth time intervals T1, T2, T3, and T4 are identical to each other. Please note that in other embodiments, the touch sensor 102 and the mobile sensor 104 can perform periodic touch sensing and motion sensing on the electronic device 100 for a predetermined period of time, in which case, The time interval is the time interval between two valid signals. For example, when the user touches the electronic device 100 twice with the first touch object 118, the electronic device 100 may have performed multiple touch sensing. Corresponding to the two first touch signals S1 generated by the two tapping actions, it is a first time interval.

隨後,進行步驟S108,第一觸控訊號S1會傳送至控制模組110, 以透過控制模組110判斷各第一振幅A1是否小於預設之第一預定值V1,且第一移動訊號MS1會傳送至控制模組110,以透過控制模組110判斷各第二振幅A2是否大於預設之第二預定值V2。其中,第一預定值V1可指控制模組110可判斷出電子裝置100產生觸控事件之最小振幅值,第二預定值V2可指移動感測器104於第三方向D3上可判斷出電子裝置100產生觸控事件 之最小振幅值,本發明之第一預定值V1與第二預定值V2並不以此為限。另外,第二移動訊號MS2與第四移動訊號MS4亦會傳送至控制模組110。 Then, in step S108, the first touch signal S1 is transmitted to the control module 110. Whether the first amplitude A1 is smaller than the preset first predetermined value V1 by the control module 110, and the first mobile signal MS1 is transmitted to the control module 110 to determine whether the second amplitude A2 is transmitted through the control module 110. It is greater than the preset second predetermined value V2. The first predetermined value V1 may refer to the control module 110 determining that the electronic device 100 generates a minimum amplitude value of the touch event, and the second predetermined value V2 may refer to the movement sensor 104 determining the electronic component in the third direction D3. Device 100 generates a touch event The minimum amplitude value, the first predetermined value V1 and the second predetermined value V2 of the present invention are not limited thereto. In addition, the second mobile signal MS2 and the fourth mobile signal MS4 are also transmitted to the control module 110.

依據控制模組110之判斷結果,若第一振幅A1小於第一預定值 V1,且第二振幅A2大於第二預定值V2,則進行步驟S110。進一步來說,由於透過第一振幅A1與第一預定值V1之比較可知電子裝置100是否可偵測到第一觸摸物118的位置,且透過第二振幅A2與第二預定值V2之比較可知電子裝置100是否有因第一觸摸物118觸摸所產生之移動,因此當第一振幅A1小於第一預定值V1,且第二振幅A2大於第二預定值V2時,電子裝置100並無法偵測出第一觸摸物118的位置,但電子裝置100透過第二振幅A2之大小可知仍有第一觸摸物118觸摸之動作。由此可知,電子裝置100可透過此結果判斷出第一觸摸物118可例如為使用者戴有手套之手指或其他不易被控制模組110辨識之觸控感應訊號之物體。 According to the judgment result of the control module 110, if the first amplitude A1 is smaller than the first predetermined value V1, and the second amplitude A2 is greater than the second predetermined value V2, then step S110 is performed. Further, it is known whether the electronic device 100 can detect the position of the first touch object 118 by comparing the first amplitude A1 with the first predetermined value V1, and the comparison between the second amplitude A2 and the second predetermined value V2 is known. Whether the electronic device 100 has a movement caused by the touch of the first touch object 118, so when the first amplitude A1 is smaller than the first predetermined value V1 and the second amplitude A2 is greater than the second predetermined value V2, the electronic device 100 cannot detect The position of the first touch object 118 is displayed, but the electronic device 100 transmits the second amplitude A2 to see that the first touch object 118 still touches. It can be seen that the electronic device 100 can determine that the first touch object 118 can be, for example, a gloved finger or other touch sensitive signal that is not easily recognized by the control module 110.

步驟S110係於電子裝置100判斷出第一觸摸物118可為使用者戴 有手套之手指之後進行,以透過控制模組110調高訊號放大單元106之訊號增益之動作。隨後,進行步驟S114,使電子裝置100進入手套模式。舉例來說,訊號增益可從第一訊號增益調高至大於第一訊號增益之第二訊號增益,意即正常模式與手套模式分別對應第一訊號增益與第二訊號增益。藉此,如第6圖所示,當第一觸摸物118再次觸摸電子裝置100時,觸控感測器102可產生第三觸控訊號S3,且其具有大於第一預定值V1之第六振幅A6。並且,移動感測器104仍可產生第一移動訊號MS1、第二移動訊號MS2與第四移動訊號MS4,且第一移動訊號MS1之第二振幅A2大於第二預定值V2。因此,控制模組110可先判斷出此結果為觸控事件,且辨識出第一觸摸物118觸摸於觸控感測器102所產生之第三觸控訊號S3,進而偵測出第一觸摸物118的位置,且可判定第一觸摸物118仍為使用者戴有手套之手指。 Step S110 is that the electronic device 100 determines that the first touch object 118 can be worn by the user. After the finger of the glove is performed, the signal gain of the signal amplifying unit 106 is increased by the control module 110. Subsequently, step S114 is performed to cause the electronic device 100 to enter the glove mode. For example, the signal gain can be increased from the first signal gain to the second signal gain greater than the first signal gain, that is, the normal mode and the glove mode correspond to the first signal gain and the second signal gain, respectively. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6 , when the first touch object 118 touches the electronic device 100 again, the touch sensor 102 can generate the third touch signal S3 and has a sixth value greater than the first predetermined value V1. Amplitude A6. Moreover, the mobile sensor 104 can still generate the first mobile signal MS1, the second mobile signal MS2, and the fourth mobile signal MS4, and the second amplitude A2 of the first mobile signal MS1 is greater than the second predetermined value V2. Therefore, the control module 110 can first determine that the result is a touch event, and recognize that the first touch object 118 touches the third touch signal S3 generated by the touch sensor 102, thereby detecting the first touch. The position of the object 118, and it can be determined that the first touch object 118 is still the finger of the user wearing the glove.

於其他實施例中,如第7圖所示,步驟S108可選擇性另包括判斷 第三振幅A3是否大於預設之第三預定值V3以及判斷第五振幅A5是否大於 預設之第四預定值V4,即步驟S308。其中,第三預定值V3係指於電子裝置100產生觸控事件時移動感測器104於第一方向D1上預設可接受之最大振幅值,且第四預定值V4係指於電子裝置100產生觸控事件時移動感測器104於第二方向D2上預設可接受之最大振幅值。因此,電子裝置100需在第一振幅A1小於第一預定值V1,第二振幅A2大於第二預定值V2,第三振幅A3小於第三預定值V3,且第五振幅A5小於第四預定值V4之情況下判定第一觸摸物為使用者戴有手套之手指,並進行步驟S110。如此一來,可避免電子裝置100於第一方向D1、第二方向D2與第三方向D3皆有移動的情況下發生誤判。 In other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 7, step S108 may optionally include determining Whether the third amplitude A3 is greater than a preset third predetermined value V3 and determining whether the fifth amplitude A5 is greater than The preset fourth predetermined value V4 is step S308. The third predetermined value V3 refers to a preset maximum amplitude value that the mobile sensor 104 presets in the first direction D1 when the electronic device 100 generates a touch event, and the fourth predetermined value V4 refers to the electronic device 100. The mobile sensor 104 presets an acceptable maximum amplitude value in the second direction D2 when a touch event is generated. Therefore, the electronic device 100 needs to be smaller than the first predetermined value V1 at the first amplitude A1, the second amplitude A2 is greater than the second predetermined value V2, the third amplitude A3 is smaller than the third predetermined value V3, and the fifth amplitude A5 is smaller than the fourth predetermined value. In the case of V4, it is determined that the first touch object is a finger on which the user wears the glove, and step S110 is performed. In this way, erroneous determination can be avoided when the electronic device 100 moves in the first direction D1, the second direction D2, and the third direction D3.

於其他實施例中,如第8圖所示,步驟S108亦可另包括判斷第三 振幅A3與第五振幅A5是否小於第二振幅A2,即步驟S408。因此,電子裝置100需在第一振幅A1小於第一預定值V1,第二振幅A2大於第二預定值V2,第三振幅A3小於第三預定值V3,第五振幅A5小於第四預定值V4,且第三振幅A3與第五振幅A5小於第二振幅A2之情況下判定第一觸摸物為使用者戴有手套之手指,並進行步驟S110。 In other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 8, step S108 may further include determining the third Whether the amplitude A3 and the fifth amplitude A5 are smaller than the second amplitude A2, that is, step S408. Therefore, the electronic device 100 needs to be smaller than the first predetermined value V1 at the first amplitude A1, the second amplitude A2 is greater than the second predetermined value V2, the third amplitude A3 is smaller than the third predetermined value V3, and the fifth amplitude A5 is smaller than the fourth predetermined value V4. When the third amplitude A3 and the fifth amplitude A5 are smaller than the second amplitude A2, it is determined that the first touch object is the finger on which the user wears the glove, and the process proceeds to step S110.

如第1圖、第3圖與第9圖所示,依據控制模組110之判斷結果, 若第一振幅A1不小於(大於或等於)第一預定值V1,或第二振幅A2不大於(小於或等於)第二預定值V2,則進行步驟S112。進一步來說,當電子裝置100判斷出第一振幅A1大於或等於第一預定值V1時,電子裝置100可偵測出第一觸摸物的位置,因此可判定第一觸摸物可例如為使用者裸露之手指。因此,於步驟S112中,控制模組110係維持訊號放大單元106之訊號增益。然後進行步驟S104,電子裝置100仍維持在正常模式。具體來說,訊號增益仍維持為第一訊號增益,使控制模組110可辨識出使用者使用裸露之手指觸摸觸控感測器102所產生之觸控訊號。 As shown in FIG. 1 , FIG. 3 and FIG. 9 , according to the judgment result of the control module 110 , If the first amplitude A1 is not less than (greater than or equal to) the first predetermined value V1, or the second amplitude A2 is not greater than (less than or equal to) the second predetermined value V2, then step S112 is performed. Further, when the electronic device 100 determines that the first amplitude A1 is greater than or equal to the first predetermined value V1, the electronic device 100 can detect the position of the first touch object, and thus can determine that the first touch object can be, for example, a user. Exposed finger. Therefore, in step S112, the control module 110 maintains the signal gain of the signal amplifying unit 106. Then, in step S104, the electronic device 100 is still maintained in the normal mode. Specifically, the signal gain is still maintained as the first signal gain, so that the control module 110 can recognize the touch signal generated by the user touching the touch sensor 102 with the bare finger.

請繼續參考第1圖與第3圖,本實施例之觸控感測方法於電子裝 置100進入手套模式之後可另包括下列步驟: Please continue to refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 3 , and the touch sensing method of the embodiment is mounted on the electronic device. After setting 100 into glove mode, the following steps can be included:

步驟S116:利用觸控感測器102進行觸控偵測,以產生一第二觸 控訊號S2,其中第二觸控訊號S2具有一第四振幅A4;步驟S118:判斷第四振幅A4是否達到一飽和值V5,若第四振幅A4大於飽和值V5,則進行步驟S120,否則進行步驟S122;步驟S120:降低訊號放大單元106之訊號增益;以及步驟S122:維持訊號放大單元106之訊號增益。 Step S116: performing touch detection by using the touch sensor 102 to generate a second touch The control signal S2, wherein the second touch signal S2 has a fourth amplitude A4; step S118: determining whether the fourth amplitude A4 reaches a saturation value V5, and if the fourth amplitude A4 is greater than the saturation value V5, proceeding to step S120, otherwise proceeding Step S122: Step S120: lowering the signal gain of the signal amplifying unit 106; and step S122: maintaining the signal gain of the signal amplifying unit 106.

以下先以第二觸摸物120為使用者裸露之手指之情況來做說明, 但不限於此情況。請參考第10圖與第11圖搭配第1圖與第3圖。於步驟S114之後,進行步驟S116,使用者使用第二觸摸物120觸摸電子裝置100一次,因此電子裝置100可利用觸控感測器102產生第二觸控訊號S2。並且,移動感測器104可於第三方向D3上產生一第一移動訊號MS1,於第一方向D1上產生一第二移動訊號MS2,且於第二方向D2上產生一第四移動訊號MS4。 Hereinafter, the second touch object 120 is used as a description of the user's bare finger. But not limited to this situation. Please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 11 for the first and third figures. After the step S114, the user touches the electronic device 100 once with the second touch object 120. Therefore, the electronic device 100 can generate the second touch signal S2 by using the touch sensor 102. The mobile sensor 104 generates a first mobile signal MS1 in the third direction D3, generates a second mobile signal MS2 in the first direction D1, and generates a fourth mobile signal MS4 in the second direction D2. .

隨後,進行步驟S118,第二觸控訊號S2會傳送至控制模組110, 以透過控制模組110判斷第四振幅A4是否達到預設之飽和值V5。其中,飽和值V5係為觸控感測器102可產生的最大振幅值。 Then, in step S118, the second touch signal S2 is transmitted to the control module 110. It is determined by the control module 110 whether the fourth amplitude A4 reaches the preset saturation value V5. The saturation value V5 is the maximum amplitude value that the touch sensor 102 can generate.

依據控制模組110之判斷結果,若第四振幅A4達到飽和值V5, 則進行步驟S120。此情況即表示觸控感測器102所傳送出之第二觸控訊號S2為過飽和訊號,因此控制模組110無法分析此第二觸控訊號S2所對應的數位碼,即無法判斷出第二觸摸物120之位置。舉例來說,當第二觸摸物120例如為使用者裸露之手指或其他對觸控感測器102產生高靈敏度之物體時,第二觸控訊號S2之第四振幅A4會達到飽和值V5,因此電子裝置100並無法判斷出第二觸摸物120的位置。 According to the judgment result of the control module 110, if the fourth amplitude A4 reaches the saturation value V5, Then proceed to step S120. In this case, the second touch signal S2 transmitted by the touch sensor 102 is a supersaturated signal. Therefore, the control module 110 cannot analyze the digital code corresponding to the second touch signal S2, that is, the second code cannot be determined. The location of the touch object 120. For example, when the second touch object 120 is, for example, a user's bare finger or other object that generates high sensitivity to the touch sensor 102, the fourth amplitude A4 of the second touch signal S2 reaches a saturation value of V5. Therefore, the electronic device 100 cannot determine the position of the second touch object 120.

當電子裝置100無法判斷出第二觸摸物120的位置時,進行步驟 S120,以透過控制模組110降低訊號放大單元106之訊號增益。然後,進行步驟S104,使電子裝置100從手套模式調整進入正常模式。舉例來說,訊號增益可從第二訊號增益降低回至第一訊號增益。藉此,當第二觸摸物120再 次觸摸電子裝置100時,觸控感測器102可產生第四觸控訊號S4,且其具有小於飽和值V5之第七振幅A7,如第12圖所示。因此,控制模組110可辨識出第二觸摸物120觸摸觸控感測器102所產生之第四觸控訊號S4,進而判斷出第二觸摸物120可為使用者使用裸露之手指,並可正常偵測出第二觸摸物120的位置。 When the electronic device 100 cannot determine the position of the second touch object 120, the steps are performed. S120, the signal gain of the signal amplifying unit 106 is reduced by the transmission control module 110. Then, step S104 is performed to adjust the electronic device 100 from the glove mode to the normal mode. For example, the signal gain can be reduced from the second signal gain back to the first signal gain. Thereby, when the second touch object 120 is When the electronic device 100 is touched, the touch sensor 102 can generate the fourth touch signal S4 and has a seventh amplitude A7 smaller than the saturation value V5, as shown in FIG. Therefore, the control module 110 can recognize that the second touch object 120 touches the fourth touch signal S4 generated by the touch sensor 102, and further determines that the second touch object 120 can use the bare finger for the user, and The position of the second touch object 120 is normally detected.

於其他實施例中,步驟S118可選擇性另包括判斷第二振幅A2是 否大於第二預定值V2。因此,電子裝置100需在第四振幅A4達到飽和值V5,且第二振幅A2大於第二預定值V2之情況下判定第二觸摸物120為使用者裸露之手指,並進行步驟S120。因此,控制模組110可先判斷出第四振幅A4達到飽和值V5,且透過第二振幅A2之大小可知仍有第二觸摸物120觸摸之動作。 In other embodiments, step S118 may optionally further comprise determining that the second amplitude A2 is No greater than the second predetermined value V2. Therefore, the electronic device 100 determines that the second touch object 120 is the bare finger of the user when the fourth amplitude A4 reaches the saturation value V5 and the second amplitude A2 is greater than the second predetermined value V2, and proceeds to step S120. Therefore, the control module 110 can first determine that the fourth amplitude A4 reaches the saturation value V5, and the magnitude of the second amplitude A2 can be seen that the second touch object 120 still touches.

於其他實施例中,步驟S118亦可選擇性另包括判斷第二振幅A2 是否大於第二預定值V2、判斷第三振幅A3是否小於預設之第三預定值V3以及判斷第五振幅A5是否小於預設之第四預定值V4。如此一來,除了透過第二振幅A2之大小可知仍有第二觸摸物120觸摸之動作外,可避免電子裝置100於第一方向D1、第二方向D2與第三方向D3皆有移動的情況下發生誤判。較佳地,步驟S118亦可選擇性另包括判斷第三振幅A3與第五振幅A5是否小於第二振幅A2。 In other embodiments, step S118 may alternatively include determining the second amplitude A2. Whether it is greater than the second predetermined value V2, determining whether the third amplitude A3 is smaller than the preset third predetermined value V3, and determining whether the fifth amplitude A5 is smaller than the preset fourth predetermined value V4. In this way, except that the second touch object 120 is touched by the magnitude of the second amplitude A2, the electronic device 100 can be prevented from moving in the first direction D1, the second direction D2, and the third direction D3. A misjudgment occurred. Preferably, step S118 may alternatively further comprise determining whether the third amplitude A3 and the fifth amplitude A5 are smaller than the second amplitude A2.

依據控制模組110之判斷結果,若第四振幅A4未達到飽和值V5, 則進行步驟S122。進一步來說,當電子裝置100判斷出第四振幅A4小於飽和值V5時,電子裝置100可偵測出第二觸摸物120的位置,因此可判定第二觸摸物120可例如為使用者戴有手套之手指。因此,於步驟S122中,控制模組110係維持訊號放大單元106之訊號增益。然後進行步驟S114,電子裝置100仍維持在手套模式。具體來說,訊號增益仍維持為第二訊號增益,使控制模組110可辨識出使用者使用戴手套之手指觸摸觸控感測器102所產生之觸控訊號。 According to the judgment result of the control module 110, if the fourth amplitude A4 does not reach the saturation value V5, Then, step S122 is performed. Further, when the electronic device 100 determines that the fourth amplitude A4 is less than the saturation value V5, the electronic device 100 can detect the position of the second touch object 120, and thus can determine that the second touch object 120 can be worn by the user, for example. The finger of the glove. Therefore, in step S122, the control module 110 maintains the signal gain of the signal amplifying unit 106. Then, in step S114, the electronic device 100 is still maintained in the glove mode. Specifically, the signal gain is maintained as the second signal gain, so that the control module 110 can recognize the touch signal generated by the user using the gloved finger to touch the touch sensor 102.
